Today the winner is... I have tried to download the Germam map again because of App update. Today it took about 10 hours. Start ![Screenshot_20230705-132502.jpg] END [image: 1688595641697-screenshot_20230705-234751.jpg] (/assets/uploads/files/1688595597949-screenshot_20230705-132502.jpg)

@Dave-J-0 said in Next instruction problem and request.: Apple Maps, Google Maps, Sygic and TomTom apps just show the direction of the second turn if it is a short distance after the upcoming direction but with no distance. This a nice thought! I think that distance for really short following of instructions is not very meaningful anyway (e.g. turn right and immediately left does not really need a distance at all). For distances of let's say 50 to 500 meters the distance is nice to know in advance, and specifically in that scenario I have absolutely no problem with it being static from the first instruction. For greater distances knowing them that early has no benefit because they will turn into the first instruction anyway after passing the previous one. People seem to look at those info tiles a lot. For myself I can say that I seldomly look at them at all. The routeline itself is leading for me, and it also tells me if a second turn is close or not.

@erik-b Ik liep tegen dezelfde problemen aan. Na twee ritten met de Carpuride, weer snel verkocht. Nu moet ik wel vermelden dat ik met klassieke motoren rijd, waarbij mischien de stroomvoorziening niet stabiel genoeg is. Met een device met eigen batterij nooit problemen gehad. Ik heb nu een DMD T665 aangeschaft. Hoop centjes, maar een prachtig apparaat!

@Mzokk said in STILL having issues w/ my Zumo XT not following the route: because the routing algorithm changed meaning that Basecamp routes no longer matched what the XT That was exactly why many Basecamp users went crazy; they didn't understand it. It quickly became clear that Garmin did not want to develop BC further and wanted to push Explore/Tread instead. And it was at this point that many BC users started looking for alternatives - e.g. MRA

Hello Filip, if you would take a look into the manual, you will see this under CarPlay: The developments for this are not finished yet, so check our communication channels for new Updates! So all CarPlay functions are not yet finished.

@NineLizards, I see your question has been answered perfectly fine by @RetiredWingMan in short: download offline maps enable sync (preferably all, then you will never have to look at it) let it complete a sync once, it will resync every time you start the app or enter the routes menu automatically and download changes only (if there are any) enable offline navigation in the app menu No need for confusion ever again (concerning offline routes that is... )

@Andrew said in Always says first exit at roundabout regardless of actual exit shown: I have a problem where the phone shows correct exit at roundabout but the AAuto screen always shows just a left or right turn for roundabouts. I see this also - Google pixel 8 MRA 4.1.2, Android Auto via Carpuride 702

I don't thimk it is simply a screen issue. For high contrast = readability in sunlight a proper choice of colors is much more important. A retired photographer recommended me, switch your color tables to greyscale and then choose for landscapes etc. and roads just the opposite colors. Michelin overlay colors are a good example.

@Bouke-Ent I am with you, some users have houndrets of route in several files and need only a few for the next vacation, week, whatever. But it is as it is, some prefer this, some not and MRA trust in their way, which is sometimes a bit different to usual common practices in computer based handling. So what, the advantages of MRA predominate up to now, even with some frustration coming up and unexpected reactions. Yeterday I am back home and made my standard test and I had a lot of problems with verbal announcements of the POIs with 335. Informations are announced by random. No preannouncement but confirmation. preannouncement of POI1 but confirmation „You reached no 1“ when I reached the Sp 2, nothing was called for WP 5. An i folow the roules for announcemts and before 4.3. it works on the same route. I am meanwhile also frustrated to write about this and stop here. Regard to your concern My solution for easy access to my routes I want to use next session I create a folder „AA routes for use“ which is by alphabetic order the first file on the screen. Those routes I need will be copied in this folder with the same name and the appendix -copy- they get automatically. The originals stays in their folder and when the session is over it is easy to delete only the copies.

@Corjan-Meijerink wil je svp nog kijken naar het te voet afleggen van de routes want daar is het probleem niet opgelost.

@Con-Hennekens het “probleem” waar ik in het openingsbericht tegenaan loop is nog niet opgelost helaas. De route maak ik in de OSM kaartlaag en dan zonder de navigatie te starten kan ik die zonder herberekening in de app volgen.

@Brian-McG Hi Brian, you didn't derail anything imho. Just pointing out a shortcoming you've encountered is fine and part of the discussion. Thanks for comment and I agree that any controller that works for the user is way better than a gloved finger and much more safe.

@Con-Hennekens Sad to hear that! This week we will research more

@Dikke-Wim geweldig!

@Jack-van-Tilburg, Kan de OSM community alvast beginnen met het in kaart brengen van de maan? Alvast bedankt! Let op de slider: dit is nog niet 1/3 van alle mogelijkheden

@Hans-van-de-Ven-MRA-Master Ja, dank je wel ............

@Guzzist I'm sure that the 1.2 export works good on an XT done it a lot of times

@paul69 thanks for showing. Mine looks similar, but without key
